On 23 November 2012, Cibicki signed a first-team contract on a youth basis with Malmö FF.[3] Cibicki made his Allsvenskan debut for Malmö FF in a home fixture against Gefle IF on 7 July 2013.[4] In total Cibicki played seven matches for the club during his first season, most of the matches coming on as a substitute for the attackers.

On 1 July 2014, Cibicki signed a first team contract with Malmö FF for three and a half additional years at the club.[5] Previously in the summer of 2014 Cibicki had reached a verbal agreement with Dutch Eredivisie club FC Groningen, but he decided to stay at Malmö FF the day before the deal was about to be signed.[6] Overall the 2014 season proved to be a breakthrough for Cibicki as he made 21 appearances for the club, scoring twice His first league goal was scored against Halmstads BK at home on 12 May 2014 in a 3–1 victory.[7] Cibicki also made three appearances in the group stage of the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League, registering one assist in Malmö's 2–0 win over Olympiacos.

During the 2016 season, Cibicki was loaned to Jönköpings Södra IF where he scored 10 goals in 26 matches and contributed to Jönköpings remaining in Allsvenskan. Whilst out on loan, in October 2016, he extended his contract with Malmö FF until the 2019 season and before the 2017 season he returned to Malmö, playing 20 times during the 2017 season, scoring five goals.[8]

Leeds United

On 31 August, Leeds confirmed the signing of Cibicki on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee (rumoured to be in the region of £1.5 million plus add-ons).[9] He made his debut for Leeds just over two weeks later on 19 September in the League Cup third round tie against Premier League side Burnley which Leeds won in a penalty shootout after a 2–2 draw.[10]

On 9 December, Cibicki made his league debut for the Whites against QPR at Loftus Road. Coming on as a substitute for the injured Caleb Ekuban, he marked his debut with an impressive display and provided an assist for Kemar Roofe to score his second goal of the match, Roofe eventually going on to score a hat-trick in Leeds' 3–1 win. Cibicki's second league appearance, a week later, saw another assist by the Swede from a free kick, which his former Malmö teammate Pontus Jansson converted, for a 1–0 win over Norwich.[11]
